Strains from the famous Dutch Passion Seed Company rarely disappoint, and those who have tried Critical Orange Punch tend to sing her praises over and over again. Crafted by first crossing Grand Daddy Purple with Orange Bud and then crossing this resulting plant with Critical, this hybrid bud is one for the history books. Though there are a few different phenotypes on the market, the most commonly seen one is more indica-dominant (which we are referencing here). You may also encounter more balanced, or even sativa-dominant variations in the wild. 

Critical Orange Punch is a great strain for those looking to experience a moderate high. Most claim she’s best enjoyed at the end of a long day when relaxation is needed. Her potency averages around the 22% mark, with nugs that are quite pretty to look at. Each dense bud is an olive green tone with a carpet of thin orange hairs and small white trichomes. Both flavors and aromas are similar in this strain as a potent blend of sour citrus, spicy earth, and skunk will overtake your senses. For some, this is a huge turn-off while others appreciate Critical Orange Punch’s ability to seamlessly mix a range of flavors.

When you’ve had more than you care to handle on any given day, let this strain ease some of your negative energy. Most users describe her effects as euphoric and spacey, with all ability to focus leaving you soon after you toke. Once you get used to your new temporary mental state, it’s advised that you prepare for some potentially strong physical effects. It’s likely that you’ll feel warm all over and incredibly relaxed, leading some smokers to sleep in no time. Even if you have a high tolerance, it’s a smart idea to clear your calendar and get set up on the couch with a pillow and blanket before you light up.

A great medical strain doesn’t have to contain high levels of CBD to be effective as many say that Critical Orange Punch’s sedating qualities do the job just fine. Those who struggle with depression or anxiety find that their mood is lifted right away and they have a hard time even forming a worry over the next several hours. Other issues including a loss of appetite or bodily pain may also be soothed for the duration of your high. If insomnia is your main concern, let Critical Orange Punch rock you to sleep and help you to wake up feeling refreshed.

Critical Orange Punch is fairly easy to rear and is hearty enough to withstand most environments. Great for indoor or outdoor growth, plants take only about 8 weeks to fully mature and are said to produce commercial-sized harvests. If you’re looking for a straightforward plant that offers you an immense number of buds, this gal is it.

Critical Orange Punch might be tough to find at your local dispensary unless you live in Colorado but that doesn’t mean you’ll never see her in your town. If you want to experience a powerful set of effects and a bold array of flavors, this strain will be right up your alley.
